Can any one help me i have used my phone 1 month back.
Your device is now stuck in the bootloader & that's no problem. Just visit the wiki & go to the magician section. Explore it, especially the part about rom upgrading with exe method & download the 1.13WWE rom with the link on the magician main page (@ the wiki).
Then connect your magician (mini) to the usb & start the exe file (shipped-rom) you've downloaded. Now it should finish, if an error 120 comes up, use maupgradeut_noid.exe like described in the howto.
Your magician should be cured after this.

Welcome to XDA-developers!
Your ROM version is fine, however you may wish to upgrade to the latest 1.13 ROM + 1.13 Radio + BigStorage (by the way, BigStorage is just a way in which you can extend your measly 7MB of Storage to 27MB). However you will need a USB cable for the above method: I highly recommend to invest in one anyway, as you will find installing many programs onto your JAM difficult without one.
I think it is possible to upgrade with just a SD/MMC card and a SD/MMC reader for your computer, however it is considerably more complicated and you will not be able to back up your existing ROM, as you will need your computer to command your JAM during the backup process. You will probably need to merge two upgrading methods in order to get a USB cable-free process, something that no one else has done. Sorry I don't quite have the time for that yet, but maybe someone else can come to your aid!
Is there a technical reason you can't use a USB cable by the way?
EDIT: I forgot this: the reason why you cannot upgrade by just dumping a ROM onto the SD card and letting the JAM upgrade from that is that the ROM must be modified with some special, device unique data from your JAM first before your JAM will accept it. The normal ROM upgrade programs do this via USB by retrieving the device data from your JAM and then applying it to the ROM they are about to send to it. While there is a way to manually get this required data, that too requires a USB cable (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=231410).

Please avoid cross-posting, especially since this is the wrong forum. I can't help you anyway - different models of PDA can have very different ways of doing things.

Thanks for your help, i'll try and tell u the result.
hi,
After installing wrong ROM, my imate jam auto format and reinstall WMCE 2003 after removing the battery or replacing my sim card. Files and programs are removed.
I've tried installing the default ROM from www.imate.com, with correct country. took me about 20mins, but i still have the same problem.
i really need help, been reading forum for weeks... please
Hi all,
I've been following this forum for a few years & have never had any problems with flashing until now.
But then I bought a new laptop last month & it runs Vista Basic! When I attempt to flash using WMDC, the ROM's VistaUpdate utility shuts down at 0%.
I did convert my XP Pro installation to a VM running under VirtualBox; but have been unable to successfully to make a valid ActiveSync connection to the Wizard under VirtualBox.
The ROM I'm using is XDA2'S WM6.5 (with CHome) {Build 21202}; from reading the forum, it appears that flashing from an SD card requires a ROM image from another phone.
Has anyone successfully flashed this ROM from an SD card? And does anyone know where this ROM image from another phone could be obtained?
Thanks for your help.

Somebody else has to dump the ROM to a card for you. I don't have a Wizard but maybe somebody else with that ROM can dump it for you.
How to do it is written in the service manual.
Hello,
I have a big problem and I hope you can help me.
A few weeks ago I want to update my Treo to WM6.5 and use a Rom (I think from navenedrob) which was timebombed (since there I don't know it).
Now I want to update my Treo to the right version from this thead :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=541417
but when I start the update with the cheathunlocker tool, it stops at 7%, the usb connection get lost and my Treo make a restart and the old bimebomed version is there...and the tool says, that the file is curuppted and i should check my update tool... but this message comes every time also with other roms.. When I use the method with the media button there comes the colored screen with "serial" and nothing happens.
(The sd card is okay and the same card which I use to install the timebombed version)
What should I do? I can't do anything... Please help me
1. format the card 32fat.
2. do not use hc card.
3. try to download again the rom.
4. if it does not help - try to install 6.0 rom from palm .
Hello
1. format the card 32fat.
2. do not use hc card.
3. try to download again the rom.
I tried this very often... But nothing helps
Where I can get this Rom? On the plam homepage I can't find a Rom, only instructions and a download for Mobile center.

For England (750V) :

Oh really thank you for the Roms!
But I have a problem, my Treo dosn't connect to my Pc. When I click to my workplace there isn't a hhd from the Treo.. and the Mobile Center show me, that there i no connection... I have Windows 7, under Windows Vista it don't work too...
Because of that I can't update my Treo.
Do you know the problem and how to solve it?
Really big thank you, this here is a nice community where I get help!!
1. try to install from WINXP - look for another computer...
2. there is a way to get the rom from the file - maybe with winrar- I'm not sure but I remember something like it...
3. look for a rom 6.1 and try to install it from the card.
Okay I try it under Windows Xp, but I get no connection
I get the Rom from the .exe file by 7zip and copy it to the sd card, but the same problem is there at 7%
Do you have maybe am link from Wm6.1?
I think all this dosn't work.. I don't know what the problem is..
What other possibility can I try? There must be a solution for it...
a link to 6.1
http://www.mediafire.com/?4gxsdxh1tmm
maybe you need to replace your card...
Okay thank you.
I try it with an other card and hope it works..
But I think, that this don't work, because when I press the media button und reset, there comes the bootloader with "serial" on the bottom of the display and when I connect it to my pc "usb".. but I can't start the rom with this method...
I try it tomorrow and tell you if it works or not
the "serial" problem happened to me too. It was because bad rom file or bad card.
Okay today I try it with an other Card and 2 Roms (also the orginal Rom), but in the bootloader modus there is every time the "serial" and below..
Palm Tr
IPL-0.20
PalmTr
SPL-0.24.0000
Serial
And when I try it with the cheetahunlocker, it stops at 7% and my Treo make a restart and the old timebombed version is loading..
But maybe my sd card slot is broken from my Treo or the sd card adapter...
because when I run the cheetahunlocker without an sd card, it also stops at 7%...
any idea to check this? Or an other way?
Hey I might have a solution here:
When you format the Mini SD card, do NOT do a quick format. Uncheck that box and do a full format, FAT32, Default Allocation Size.
This took over 15 minutes for me.
Do a scandisk (Right click the drive/tools/scandisk) and check "Fix Errors". This should ensure your SD card is in good shape.
Now copy a good ROM to the card and reset+PTT. The Palm should flash successfully now. If not your ROM may be corrupted.
Hope this helps! It worked for me!
1. Format sd card to fat32
2. find the .nbh file in the stock ROMS
3. rename it CHEEIMG.nbh
4. copy it to the sd (make sure it is not hcsd or it won't work)
5. insert the card in the card reader
6. reset the phone by using the stylus and the reset button next to the card reader, at the same time hold the PTT button on the left side of the phone, (this will put it bootloader mode)
7. when prompted, press the end talk button on the phone, this should start the update process without using activesync.
HardSpl
1. redownload the app and extract using 7zip
2. make sure you have .NET compact framework 3.5 installed on the PC and the phone
3. in CHEETAH unlocker press ctrl+2 and click the header (this will unlock all three options)
4. follow steps
The radio it flashes will not be a good one, so you need to search around to get the right one. Once those steps are complete, you should be able to reflash WM 6.5 without any problems. If you download Navendrob's ROM, you will need to download the arcsoft mms composer to make mms work, and you should be good to go.
Hi backspacepc,
thank you for your help!!!Now it works.. I didn't rename the file. so this was the problem
Hi,
I have a question about this rom. (Wm6.5 from naevendrob)
My touch is broken, so I can't use the touch. Now I have the problem, that I only end a call with touching "end" and not with the normal hang up button on my keybord.
My second problem is, that I can't lock my Treo, because when I want to unlock it, I have to use the touch display.. On Wm 6.1 I could turn my screen with the hang key on my keyboard off.. this is now on this Rom not possible, or do anybody have a solution for this? Maybe in the registry or something?
Thank you
Has nobody a anser?

Since your issue is with the ROM you loaded & your hardware problem, you should bring it up at the specific thread where you downloaded the ROM from.
I would recommend getting the touch screen fixed or roll back to WM6.0.
No it's a Problem with my Treo. I change the touchscreen one time and it works for a while, but after maybe 2 months the touch dosn't work.
Can anybody maybe write a file that i can use the hang up button to hang up without the touchscreen?Or has anyone an idea to change it maybe in the registy or sth. like that?
